SOC Altered Box Swap

Happy Hellos Everyone:

I know it's be a while since my last post. All I have to say is this has been a busy season for me. I've been crafting since my last post. However, I haven't made that many greeting cards of late. My mojo has come and gone. I've had a few wedding projects I've been working on. Thanks goodness that over. Now, I can focus on my projects. Believe it or not, I have been doing more scrapping than any thing else. I just haven't taken many pictures of my projects.

A couple of weeks ago I signed-up for a altered box swap over at Scraps of Color. I began and completed this project during the storm that knocked out the power for many of us here on the east coast. There was little else to do that didn't require electricity. I was tasked to make box with a Victorian or Shabby Chic flair. I don't think I am good at either. Take a look at what I created.

I made two of the four flowers above. I haven't sent this box off yet because I have been contemplating on whether or not to add some ribbon to it. I know I'll have to decide quick because I plan to put this in the afternoon mail tomorrow.

Well, thanks for stopping by The Peddler's Gallery and come back real soon.

About Me

I have been scrapping and making cards for several years and I have been crafting much longer than that. Needless to say, I love crafts, but in recent years I have become addicted to paper crafts. Perhaps I’m reverting back in some ways. I feel so good when family and friends like the cards they receive from me or request a card I created.
The Peddler's Galley name was birth in 1991. During that time I decorated specialty cakes (i.e. wedding, birthday, graduation, etc.) as much as I create greeting cards now. Before that, I was a licensed beautician and before that I sold/collected, matted & framed opened & limited edition art and after that I made & sold unique accessories for men and women; in between all of that I catered gourmet meals for small parties. I met a lot of unforgettable people along the way. You know who you are. While living in the Deep South, I sold fine art work for a friend. I needed business cards; however, I had no name. After a week of trying to find a name for myself my friend, Dee Valentine came up with a name for me. She said, 'Lorie, you have so much going on. You're like a d*** peddler. Let's call you The Peddler's Gallery.' I liked it.
